I’ve been reading up on Keto and ready to start planning food/menus/etc so I can actually start asap. I know how many carbs/fats/proteins I need to eat in a day - that was the easy part. But when I stop to think of how to track everything, I’m absolutely paralised with “how in the h*** do I do this?!”, and “I do not have 3 hours every day to do the math”. I’m so discouraged (ALREADY) when I think about a recipe and figuring out how much of that recipe I’m going to eat, how much FCP are in every gram of every ingredient and if I’m eating X amount of grams of that recipe than I’m eating X amount of grams of Proteins, X amount of grams of Fats, X amount of grams of Carbs…on and on and on and on. I want to cry because I already feel so discouraged and I’ve not even technically started.
I guess what I need to know is, what is an easy way to track all of the FCP of every gram of every ingredient in every recipe if I’m making meals for more than one person - and if I don’t have a lot of time during the day to do all the math? I have a Keto tracker app but I was on my phone today for no joke, 35 minutes, just figuring out the 3 items I had for breakfast. That’s 35 minutes for one meal, for one person for one day.
I don’t know. I just need help. I don’t know how to do this the easy way so I can get every gram of every ingredient of every meal tracked. Are there secrets? Do I need to join a society and learn a handshake? That would be easier.
Help.
Please and thank you.
